NBA Draft Lottery

Washington pulling the 3rd pick in the NBA Draft Lottery is the equivalent to hitting on five of six Power Ball numbers. With Nerlens Noel and Ben McLemore likely out off the board, the Wiz will have their pick of anyone else draft eligible. Here’s a prediction of how the rest of that 2013 NBA Draft could flesh out.

The Washington Wizards had a 19.9 percent chance of landing the first pick in Wednesday night’s NBA Draft Lottery. The odds weren’t in their favor. Perhaps that cushioned the blow as the New Orleans Hornets were given the first overall pick in the draft.
